The Thohoyandou Stadium will be the centre for attention tomorrow afternoon. That is where the NFD match between the league title contenders, Black Leopards, and Witbank Spurs will be staged.

The Thohoyandou Stadium will be the centre for attention tomorrow afternoon. That is where the NFD match between the league title contenders, Black Leopards, and Witbank Spurs will be staged.

The Thohoyandou outfit are currently in the second spot on the log with 30 points accumulated from 18 matches. Spurs are in the seventh position, only four points behind Leopards. Not only are Leopards aiming to collect full points tomorrow, but it will be their wish to hear that the logleaders, Thanda Royal Zulu, had dropped points against University of Pretoria at the Tuks Stadium in Pretoria.

Black Leopards are a hard nut to crack of late. They won four matches in a row. Last weekend they beat Mbombela United 2-1.

Spurs lost 0-1 to Cape Town All Stars last Saturday and losing against Leopards tomorrow will narrow their chances of taking the league title to Emalahleni. Leopards will pin their hopes on Mziwokuthula Zimu, Mwape Musonda and Ivan Mahangwahaya for goals, while Jean Munganga, Marks Munyai, Thivhavhudzi Ndou and Lebohang Mabotja will ensure that their danger area is always clean.

The other fixtures are: FC Cape Town vs Santos, Royal Eagles vs Milano United, Mthatha Bucks vs Magezi, Jomo Cosmos vs Mbombela United and Cape Town All Stars vs Stellenbosch FC.
